Answer(s): D

Explanation:

This sentence has an error in the subject-verb agreement. When there is a plural noun as a subject, a plural form of the verb should be used as it is in the option D (are). The other options use either singular verb or an inappropriate auxiliary verb (is/was/ has). Option E uses a main verb (have) that is inappropriate. Option D is the correct answer.

  2. that motivating employees to come for
  3. that motivate employees to come for
  4. that to motivate employees to come for
  5. that will motivate employees to come for

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

This sentence has an error in the use of subject-verb agreement. The sentence starts with a tone of command and one of the subordinate verb (help) appears in the present tense so the preceding verb must also needs to be in the same tense (motivate) as it is in the option C. the other options are all using inappropriate forms of the verb (motivated - past tense/ motivating - gerund/ to motivate - infinitive verb/ will motivate - future tense). Option C is the correct answer.

  1. customer satisfaction naturally follow.
  2. customer satisfaction will naturally follow.
  3. customer satisfaction is naturally follow.
  4. customer satisfaction are naturally follow.
  5. customer satisfaction to naturally follow

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

This sentence has an error in the subordinate verb (follow), which needs to be either future tense or a present tense singular verb, if it has to become correct. Option A uses a plural verb (follow) in the place of a singular verb. Options C and D use inappropriate auxiliary verbs those to be used in a continuous tense (is/ are naturally follow). Option E uses a preposition (to) in the place of an auxiliary verb. Option B uses an auxiliary verb (will naturally follow) that is used for a future tense, which is more appropriate to the sentence; hence option B is the correct answer.



If you are part of the team and if the attitude of another member is affecting the quality of your work, do not hesitate to initiate action in them.

  2. do not hesitate to initiate action on them.
  3. do not hesitate to initiate action upon them.
  4. do not hesitate to initiate action against them.
  5. do not hesitate to initiate action for them.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

This sentence has an error in the use of inappropriate preposition. The notion of the sentence suggests something to be done against a person so the preposition (against) will be suitable to the sentence. Option D uses the appropriate preposition that is suitable to the context, whereas others use inappropriate prepositions (in/ on/ upon/for them). Option D is the correct answer.



To remain unflustered through challenging situations, and work with tranquility and calm, to stay unruffled, smile and radiate peace at the work place do not indeed seem like a mammoth task.

  1. peace at the work place do not indeed seem like a mammoth task.
  2. peace at the work place does not indeed seem like a mammoth task.
  3. peace at the work place do indeed not seem like a mammoth task.
  4. peace at the work place does indeed not seem like a mammoth task.
  5. peace at the work place indeed do not seem like a mammoth task.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

This sentence has an error in the subject-verb agreement. Though the sentence starts with many alternative subjects, all are abstract nouns and the last noun (peace) is given the priority, as a main subject so the verb that follows must be a singular one as it is in the option B (peace at the work place does not indeed seem like a mammoth). The other options except D use a plural form of the verb (do not seem). Option D uses a singular verb appropriately but has misplaced the adverb (indeed - does indeed not seem). Option B is the correct answer.
